WEST ROGERS PARK — A man is wanted in three incidents of sexual abuse Tuesday involving teenagers in West Rogers Park, police said in an alert.

About 7:15 a.m. Tuesday, an 18-year-old woman was walking in the 2600 block of West Granville Avenue when she was approached from behind by the suspect "who touched the victim inappropriately," police said.

About 15 minutes later, a 16-year-old girl was also approached from behind in the 6100 block of North Talman Avenue and also touched inappropriately, police said.

Then, at 8:10 a.m., the suspect approached another 16-year-old girl in the 6000 block of North Mozart — near Clinton Elementary School — and exposed himself to her, police said.

Police said the offender was described as a male Hispanic or Asian/Pacific Islander, about 30
years old, 5-foot-8 to 6 feet tall and about 190 pounds with a light complexion. The offender was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, black pants and black boots.

Anyone with information about these incidents are encouraged to call Area North Detectives Bureau at 312-744-8200 with reference numbers HY-247643, HY-249102 and HY-247767.
